Small Groups

Groups are a place where we can strengthen our faith, help each other through life, and make a real impact on our communities. Groups create an environment for you to connect in a meaningful way with others while getting to know God better. We have a few ways for you to get connected:

Group Taster

Sometimes it's nice to "try before you buy"! For this reason, we offer a one-time group experience so you can see and feel how a group works. It's offered Sunday Mornings at the church. This is a great first step for those who've never been in a small group. If you are interested, fill out the "Join a New Group" form below.

Prayer Training

Prayer is really about having a close, connected relationship and conversation with God. Out of that flows the ability to help others as we speak to them. We are currently building teams to pray for others after our worship services and Tuesday nights during Stepping Forward. If you would like to be a part of a team or receive mentoring let us know. You don’t need to have any previous experience, just a desire to learn and be used by God! Questions? Contact Duane Davis at

Join a New Group

When you're ready to join a group it's nice to be with others who are new like you! We have new groups starting at various times throughout the year. Let us know you're interested and we'll send you the next group launch date and details!
